4. Don't worry about distance. Most fishing is done with 30 to 35 feet of
line.

5. Ef your flies are snapped off on the a cast, it means that you do not
pause long enough at end of back cast.

6. If your line hits water continually aheadof leader and fly, you can
correct this by either raising tip slightly at end of forward cast or by pulling
in a little line at that point to check line momentarily in the air to permit
the leader to roll out and settle in the water first.

STUDENT CONTROL

The trend in intramural athletics is toward student control. One of the
reasons for this is the desire to make the student feel that it is his program.
If the student has the feeling of individual ownership he will accept more
responsibility and do everything in his power to make the program a success. This
tends also to develop leadership among the students.

Another reason for increasing student control is that it relieves the director
of many routine duties, enabling him to spend more time supervising and developing
his program.

Now let us consider some of the positions and duties that can be assigned to
the students.

Publicity Bureau

The personnel of this group should be selected in cooperation with the
Journalism or English departments of the school. Their duties have been discussed
earlier in this chapter.

Intramural Council

This council should include in its personnel the intramural director, the
student manager, a faculty member and the intramural secretary. Their duties
would include the formulating of a body of rules and regulations effecting
eligibility, and protested games.

Student Manager

_ The duties of the student manager are very important; therefore they call
for a student who is completely dependable. He works with the director and is
directly responsible to him. His duties include the notification of the team
managers of the schedule, and the field managers concerning their duties, and the
assignment of officials, scorekeepers and timekeepers.

Intramural Secretary

The duties of the intramural secretary include the recording of points
earned by each individual and each team in all activities included in the program.
It is also his responsibility to make public the standing of teams from time to
time. The results of all contests are in his hands, and he is directly responsible
to the student manager.

Team Manager

The team manager should be elected by his team or organization; he is directly
responsible to the student manager. It is his duty to see that his team is or-
ganized and ready to appear when it is scheduled to play. Ohio State University
lists the following duties of a good team manager.
